Clancy Exploration Limited (ASX: CLY) is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement to acquire the Hong Kong Gold Project (the “Project” ) located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia (Figure 1).
The project contains over five strike kilometres of lower Fortescue Group rocks including both the Hardey Formation and the Mount Roe Basalt, as mapped by the Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA). Novo Resources describe this stratigraphy as being “the key to the recent new conglomerate gold discoveries in the region”.
Previous explorers have also targeted Archaean lode hosted gold mineralisation and VMS mineralisation.

==> picture [312 x 360] intentionally omitted <==
Location, Infrastructure & Tenure:
The Project is located 100km south-southwest of Port Hedland in the Western Pilbara Goldfield of Western Australia. Access to the Project is via the sealed Great Northern Highway for 100km south of Port Hedland thence via good quality graded roads.
The Hong Kong Gold Project consists of a single Exploration Licence, 47/3566, covering 40km[2] with an expiry date of 19 July 2022.
The exploration licence is located wholly within the Yandeyarra Aboriginal Reserve.
Project Geology:
GSWA mapping has outlined a highly prospective >5km strike length of the basal contact between the Mt Roe Basalt and older Archaean Basalt.
The Mt Roe Basalt forms as distinctive red ridges with well-developed scree slopes. The Hardey Formation essentially comprises of conglomerate with a few minor interbedded sandstone occurrences. The polymictic conglomerate includes clasts

of basalt, chert, granite, shale, dolerite and other lithologies with diameters up to 1m. The clasts are rounded to angular.
Numerous prospecting workings (dryblowing) were located along creeks draining from the conglomerate.

Figure 2: Hong Kong Project- Geology & Occurrences
The Archaean Pilbara Well Greenstone belt crops out southeast of the Lower Fortescue Group lithologies. The greenstone belt includes metabasalts, ultramafics and silicified sediments which have been metamorphosed and deformed by up to three phases of ductile deformation.
Historical Exploration & Mining:
John Bull
The John Bull workings have collapsed obscuring the scale of the historical operations. A tight, sub-vertical fault with quartz veins that strike 025[o] lies exposed in a 40m deep shaft developed in carbonated mafic rock at the main cluster of workings. Mullock includes minor quartz-carbonate vein material. Quartz porphyry occurs immediately west of the main workings.

Clancy Exploration Limited (ASX: CLY)
ASX / Media Announcement
A shallow pit sunk into fresh metabasalt, 100m east of the main workings, has exposed deformed quartz-carbonate-chlorite veins with apple green sericite and disseminated native gold. Rock chip sampling of the quartz-carbonate veining has reported up to 71.4g/t gold.

Figure 3: Regional Geology & Mineral Occurrences
Last Chance
Last Chance workings comprise of a 4m deep stope extending for 20m on a 20cm wide quartz-carbonate vein. Chip samples from laminated quartz veins reported results of up to 45.5 g/t gold.
Princess May
Historical workings extend over 150m strike length. A tight fault with quartz veins striking 015 to 025[o] and dipping 65-70[o] East, is exposed in several shafts and stopes

developed to a maximum depth of 40m. Mullock samples include variably altered chlorite-carbonate-sericite mafic rock. Laminated quartz-carbonate veining contains limonite pseudomorphs (after sulphide) and lamellae of apple-green sericite. Sampling of the quartz-carbonate vein material reported up to 33.2 g/t gold.
Foochow
Foochow is a series of pits and stopes that extend over a strike of 70m, to around 10m depth. Mullock dumps carry chlorite-carbonate-sericite altered dolerite commonly with limonite pseudomorphs. A single rock chip sample taken of laminated quartz vein material reported 14.9 g/t gold.
Empress
Empress workings comprise of a deep shaft to approximately 40m and stoping has occurred over 50m strike length. Mullock material surrounding the shaft is massive to weakly foliated dolerite, variably altered to chlorite-carbonate-sericite. Numerous small quartz-carbonate-pyrite veins cut the altered dolerite. Sampling of laminated quartz vein material, north of the workings, reported 11.2 g/t gold.
Hong Kong
Hong Kong is represented by a group of workings comprising of a 20m shaft and two stopes of similar depth located over northeast-striking structures developed in altered mafic rock, including dolerite. More workings extend 160m north-northeast of Hong Kong where a 10m deep shaft and stopes extend over 40 metres of strike.
Mullock dumps indicate extensive chlorite-carbonate alteration of mafic host rocks and laminated quartz-carbonate veins. More intense alteration in narrow proximal zones (adjacent to veins) comprise of bleached zones of sericite and carbonate. Sampling of quartz vein material reported results of up to 5.35 g/t Au.
Empress East #2
A 40m long series of stopes and pits. The deepest extent of workings is approximately 10m. Mullock is massive but strongly carbonated mafic lithologies with small quartzcarbonate veining and apple green sericite on vein margins. Altered wall rock sample reported 0.054 g/t Au.
Arizona
Arizona is located a few hundred metres east of the Princess May workings. The strong carbonate alteration evident suggests that Arizona lies within the John Bull Shear Zone. Sampling conducted across a variety of styles of alteration and mineralisation reported values up to 1.24 g/t gold in a quartz-chlorite porphyry. The porphyry is similar to that observed at John Bull.

APPENDIX 2: JORC Code, 2012 Edition‐ Section 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. |
Reconnaissance rock chip sampling (152 samples) was completed by De Grey Mining Ltd in 2008. Rock chip conducted by visual identification of prospective lithological and gossanous units within the historical Pilbara Well Greenstone Belt. Location of samples was determined using a handheld Garmin GPS unit with an accuracy of +/‐5m Rock samples (De Grey) were sent to UltraTrace in Perth, where they were dried, crushed, pulverised and split to produce a sub–sample for Aqua Regia digestion on a 50g sample with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy undertaken to determine gold content with a detection limit of 0.005ppm. All other elements (18 in total) were read by inductively coupled plasma – optical emission spectroscopy technique (ICP‐OES) (Ag, As, Ba, Bi, Hg, Li, Mo, Pt, Sb, Sn, U and W) with various detection limits or inductively coupled plasma – mass spectroscopy (Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn). |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |
Rock chip samples taken typically weigh in the range of 3 to 4kg. Representativeness cannot be ascertained as it was not recorded. |
|
| Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules)maywarrant disclosure of detailed information. |
A 3‐4kg rock chip sample was sampled and sent for analysis at Ultratrace laboratory in Perth where the sample was dried, crushed, pulverised and split to produce a 50g sub sample. The sub sample underwent Aqua Regia Digestion with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy for gold and Inductively Coupled Plasma‐Optical Emission Spectroscopy for base metals. |
|
| Drilling techniques |
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open‐hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face‐sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so,bywhat method,etc). |
No drilling conducted. |
| Drill Sample Recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. |
No drilling conducted. |
| Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. |
No drilling conducted. | |
| Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due topreferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. |
No drilling conducted. | |
| Logging | Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. |
No drilling conducted. |
| Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core(or costean,channel,etc) photography. |
Rock chip samples were visually logged and some photographed | |
| The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
No drilling conducted | |
| Sub‐ sampling |

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or nationalpark and environmental settings. |
The granted Exploration Licence E47/3566 has been acquired by Clancy Exploration Ltd |
| The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area. |
The Exploration Licence is located wholly within the Yandeyarra Aboriginal Reserve. Access permits and consent is required in order to operate within the Exploration Licence. |
|
| Exploration | Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
Exploration has been ongoing since 1998 through various parties: the Farno group, Bullion, Chalice Gold Mines and De Grey Mining mainly through option arrangements with the previous owner. The data pertainingto these exploration activities ispresented in this report. |
| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
The Hong Kong Project is located along the southeastern margin of the Pilbara Well Greenstone Belt. The northeasterly trending greenstone belt is up to 8.6km wide and forms a northeast‐plunging synform over a strike length of 40km. The PWGB has experienced multiple phases of ductile deformation and metamorphism, and consists mainly of basalts and ultramafic rocks, with silicified sedimentary rocks. Several chert interbeds, and minor metamorphosed felsic volcanic and sedimentary units occur within the mafic–ultramafic sequence. Goldmineralisation parallels lithological contacts and foliation in amphibolite host rocks located in the highly sheared margin to the Yule Granitic Complex. Bedrock‐hosted gold was mined from metre‐scale, foliation‐parallel quartz veins, however, vein widths can be as great 20 metres wide and strike northeast over several hundred metres. Gold is hosted in quartz‐carbonate veins in carbonated mafic to ultramafic rocks, and represent typical Archaean orogenic gold deposits. Gold is most likely concentrated in shear zones and the faulted contacts between units of contrasting competencies and lithology. Sericite and carbonate alteration, with secondary malachite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite is often associated withgold. |
| Drill Hole Information | A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: |
No drilling reported. |
| o easting and northing of the drill hole collar | No drilling reported. | |
| o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres)of the drill hole collar |
No drilling reported. | |
| o dip and azimuth of the hole | No drilling reported. | |
| o down hole length and interception depth | No drilling reported. | |
| o hole length. | No drilling reported. | |
| If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
All available historical exploration information has been included in the release. A more comprehensive evaluation of activities conducted across the Project historically is underway. |
|
| Data Aggregation Methods | In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut‐off grades are usuallyMaterial and should be stated. |
No modification of results was performed. |
| Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. |
No aggregation of data was conducted. | |
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearlystated. |
No metal equivalents are reported. | |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
These relationships are particularly important in the reportingof Exploration Results. |
No drilling reported. |
| If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known,its nature should be reported. |
No drilling reported. | |
| If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
No drilling reported. | |
| Diagrams | Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
Plans of project geology, targets, historical workings have been included in the body of this release. |
